Whale Watching and Sydney Harbour Cruise - Departs Darling Harbour

4.7

Join the crew at Go Whale Watching Sydney as we make our way from Darling harbour, taking in the famous Sydney Harbour land marks and out to the open ocean for an epic Whale Watching experience!

Our Sydney cruises depart from Darling Harbour and pass many of Sydney's famous landmarks including Luna Park, the Harbour Bridge, Circular Quay, Sydney Opera House, Kirabilly House, Fort Denison, Bradley's Head, the mansions of Rose Bay! During the weekend cruises you will see the Harbour alive with colourful sailing boats

Once out past the Heads the fun really starts as we start to look for the wonderful Humpback Whales migrating past. Our land based spotters will hopefully help us to find the whales in no time at all! The majority of the migrating whales spotted are Humpback whales, but you will also have the chance to see other species like Southern Rights, Minkes, Bryde’s Blue and Orcas, as well as other marine life like dolphins, sea turtles, Australian Fur Seals, a bounty of sea birds

Our best efforts are made to ensure your cruise is an enjoyable one but please remember these are wild animals and do not perform on cue! A range of behaviours may be viewed from spy hopping to breaching and tail slipping. Our professional crew ensures minimal disturbance to the animals we are encountering, while providing and informative commentary and always being happy to answer any questions you may have

Tour includes:

Your cruise will be approx. 2 hours 45 minutes depending upon where whales are found and whether the boat is picking up from Manly as well

Chance to spot a variety of Whales and other wildlife

Excellent day trip!

Glenn and Harrison are very knowledgeable about the area as well as the whales. They provided a delightful tour out of the harbour and made sure all guests were comfortable throughout the trip. We were fortunate and saw 6 whales on our trip. They brought their own professional photographer and made the incredible images available to us for free shortly after the trip via their social media. Would highly recommend Go Whale Watching for a trip.

It was an amazing experience

Seeing the baby humpback whales and the rest of the pods was an amazing experience, I was originally sceptical that we would even see any whales let alone being 10 metres from the boat, staff where great and helpful. Awesome day, thanks
